udaipur to mumbai: wrong station name?

reneeautumn

hi, all. i typed in udaipur to mumbai (mumbai and mumbai CST both had one result only) on irctc.co.in. it came up with one train,
2996A UDZ BDTS SF EXP 21:40 13:38 - T - TH - S -

however, when i clicked on book the ticket, it said the station name was wrong (which i've seen before) and it said the station it would arrive at at 13:38 is borivali, BVI. i looked on the indian railways and found this is a station, but i couldn't find *where* the station is. is this a glitch? is this an actual station in mumbai?

thanks for any help!

2996A terminates at Bandra Terminus and not at Mumbai CST.
Borivali is a station on way to Bandra Terminus (about 20 kms).
If you type Udaipur to Bandra Terminus, you should get the desired result.

thanks! yes, the train does terminate at that station. is *that* in mumbai? or close enough to it for a taxi to the city?

ETA: sorry. I found it on my LP map; just not listed under station names in the main part of 'getting there and away.'

Bandra Terminus is within municipal limit of Mumbai and the City centre is about 15 kms south of the station. You get taxi from Bandra Terminus.

In actual fact, Bandra is in the heart of Mumbai - the so called Queen of the suburbs.
But for a visitor staying in the "tourist" area around Colaba, its easy to commute to Churchgate station by a local train. Avoid the morning rush hours, though.
